Chaire Cyber CNI – Cybersecurity for Critical Networked Infrastructures

Chaire CyberCNI @EDF Paris (21.9.2021) – Hassan CHAITOU, Security risk optimization for learning on heterogeneous quality data

On Sep 21, 2021, we had the pleasure to visit our partner EDF in Paris Palaiseau! Here is another highlight presentation:

Hassan CHAITOU, Security risk optimization for learning on heterogeneous quality data
A classifier is a component used in the automation of “decision-making” or complex data abstraction: intruder detection, speed limitation extraction. For an efficient classifier, the training must be on a large volume of data and be renewed over time by integrating or revoking certain learning data. From a security point of view, this process represents a risk since it offers the attacker various ways of degrading classifier performance (either by forcing classifications mischievous, either by randomly degrading its performance). These two types of attacks require more or less effort from the attacker.

This risk is exacerbated when data comes from sources (network equipment, organizations) corresponding to heterogeneous trust levels. Hassan’s thesis aims at controlling the risk associated with this update via game theory in the case where the confidence in the learning data is not homogeneous.

Chaire CyberCNI @EDF Paris (21.9.2021) – Julius BÜNGER, Keeping software in massive IoT installations up-to-date

On Sep 21, 2021, we had the pleasure to visit our partner EDF in Paris Palaiseau! Here is another highlight presentation:

Julius BÜNGER, Keeping software in massive IoT installations up-to-date
Julius’s thesis will provide solutions to ease the IoT device recycling. An object may become unusable for several reasons, for example a hardware failure, no more energy from the battery or obsolete functions. In that case, it is important to decommission the device, and recycle it. One solution for recycling is to re-use the object in a different application or deployment, if it embeds the necessary functions. It can also be disassembled and its parts can be sent to different recycling industry. In order to make this possible, we need to address the issues of localization, keep-alive,classification and security.

Participation at the panel “Cyber security & Digital policies” at theYoung Security Conference 2021

On July 13, 2021, I have the pleasure to be invited as panelist at the Young Security Conference.
The Young Security Conference (YSC) aims at connecting young thinkers with policy experts and academic scholars in a dialogue about the future of European security and defense.
I will participate in the panel “15h30 – 17h30: Afternoon Session III: Cyber security & Digital policies”.

La cybersécurité concerne chacun d’entre nous – toujours et partout

I was giving a speech on the need for cybersecurity and strong investments in cybersecurity as basis for our modern society on June 10, 2021.

I was invited at the signage event of the German-French Academy for the industry of the future regarding the signing of the partnership with Airbus and ArianeGroup. The event took place at the Ministry of Economy and relance of and with Bruno Le Maire.

Crowdsourced AI-Supported IoT Data-Modeling (IM2021)

Our IM 2021 paper “Crowdsourced AI-Supported IoT Data-Modeling” shows how Artificial Intelligence can help unifying IoT data models during creation. The solution consists of an open repository, an Eclipse-based editor frontend, syntax and semantics validation, and machine-learning supported tagging and completion of data models.
